"Ryan was perfectly on-time and was a plumbing scholar and a gentleman. We had a simple drain replacement under a new sink. Going to Western saved me at least another day of trying to figure out proper parts and doing the install myself, and it also saved my wife's ears from hearing my salty language."

"Stuff happens, and this business knows how to handle it! We had a stain on the ceiling. Ofri from BTB came over and turned on the water from the upstairs bathtub and then the shower stall. The ceiling became moist after the shower was turned on. Ofri then came back with a plumber. He turned on the upstairs bathtub. After they left, water dripped from the ceiling. Ofri had the plumber immediately send over a team for a service call. They broke open a hole in the ceiling and found that a pipe leading to the bathtub was so rusty it had holes. They took videos showing other pipes leading to the bathtub were also very rusty. While the team was still there, Ofri gave us prices, sent over the paperwork and the pipes were replaced within a of couple hours. Fabulous! Ofri had thought it would take a lot longer to complete the plumbing work. Therefore, her pricing did not align with the actual work performed. She brought in Alon, who substantially reduced the price to our satisfaction. Their responsiveness and reasonableness earned them my highest rating. Thank you Ofri, Alon and the BTB team!"

"I had a really tricky situation with an old bathroom that had plumbing issues and weird layout quirks. 1 Degree Construction came in, assessed everything honestly, and gave me a fair estimate without sugarcoating the challenges.

FAQs for small size appliance repair or service projects in Inglewood, CA

Magnetrons burn out when their magnets crack, terminals overheat, or internal connections loosen. Excess heat does most of the damage, so make sure the vents stay clear and the unit has breathing room on all sides. Good airflow and routine cleaning go a long way toward keeping the magnetron alive.

Signs that you need a microwave repair include the unit's inability to heat, extended cooking times, sparks, odd noises, burning odors, or running with the door open. A malfunctioning touchpad, an unlatched door, or a turntable that won’t spin are clear indicators that a repair is needed. 

It makes sense to fix a microwave if the repair costs less than a new unit and the appliance isn’t past its prime. Built-in or high-end models are good candidates for repair, while a budget countertop unit over 10 years old is less expensive to replace. Before deciding, compare repair quotes with the price of a new model. 

Wiping down the inside of the microwave each week keeps grease from clogging vents and trapping heat around key parts. A quick steam clean with lemon, vinegar, or baking soda loosens stuck-on food without harsh chemicals. Sticking to a simple cleaning schedule reduces overheating, extends the microwave’s lifespan, and helps it reach its full potential. Seeking advice from an appliance repair technician on maintenance tips can help you prolong the useful life of your microwave.

Microwaves last seven to eight years with consistent care. With consistent cleaning and proper maintenance, many units continue to operate efficiently for 10 years. In some high-end models, rigorous upkeep and advanced component quality can extend the unit’s performance for up to 15 years. Routine service checks and a maintenance schedule can safeguard your microwave’s longevity.

When you suspect your microwave fuse is blown, the appliance may not start, and the display might be unresponsive. To check a glass fuse, begin by disassembling the panel and inspecting the fuse area for melting or discoloration. To check a ceramic fuse, use a multimeter to test for continuity. A failed fuse stops the microwave from operating and must be replaced to avoid further damage.
